What Is the Build a Beast Program?
Build a Beast is a fully customized development path designed for clients who want more than a one-size-fits-all training experience. Each program is built from the ground up based on the dog’s temperament, the handler’s goals, and the environments the dog must succeed in.
Training is structured, humane, and practical—focused on creating dogs that are calm, controlled, and reliable in real-world situations.
Training for Real Life — Not Just Performance
Training at Metro K9 Academy always serves a real-world application. Build a Beast dogs are developed to live well with people, operate confidently in public, and maintain a clear structure at home.
